Transitional Resources

Our vision is that everyone with mental illness lives a safe and meaningful life. Our Mission is building better health, stable housing, and a community of support for people living with mental illness. Transitional Resources is a licensed behavioral health agency and residential program located in West Seattle. The agency was founded in l976 as a residential treatment facility for young adults diagnosed with mental illness. What began as a residential treatment program for fifteen has now grown to include six different programs serving over 200 individuals each year. Despite our growth, we have retained highly personalized care tailored to the individualized needs of each consumer. Our services are enhanced by a strong sense of community that not only provides natural support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, but inspires hope in consumers who are in the early stages of recovery. We highly value work, education, volunteer experiences, and involvement in other meaningful adult activities as important components of recovery. Our belief that consumers can and want to work and lead meaningful lives is demonstrated by the many vocational services we have offered since the agency?s inception. We value the same things that those with mental illness do: * Respect, dignity, and autonomy; * A safe place to call home; * Feeling needed and wanted; * Being part of an inclusive and diverse community; * Working and engaging in meaningful activities, and; * Having hope through a highly personalized path to recovery.
